Not only will you see where these famous wrecks are located, but also included on the chart is a collection of 34 stories about how many shops of these shipwrecks came to be. Read below about the Morro Castle, just one of the many fascinating ships mentioned on the chart...

The Morro Castle - "This luxury liner, built in 1930, made the New York to Havana run. Her owner, the Ward LIne, paid low wages, and as a result many of her crew were smuggling liquor, drugs, and illegal aliens into the US. On September 7, 1934, in a fierce gale, disaster struck. Her captain died suddenly from a heart attack, and a fire broke out in the drawing room and quickly spread. Assuming command, the Chief Officer maintained course and at first did not send out an SOS to keep from paying a salvage fee. When he finally ordered the ship abandoned, the crew rushed to the lifeboats leaving the passengers to fend for themselves. The burning liner finally drifted ashore; 137 of 455 people perished - mostly passengers.
